Given bases, prestige ect (going from memory) the list of coalition SG's currently linked to the P-Rangers, the 'Alt-Rangers' SG is the weakest link so to speak and would be the first for the chop.
Unless and this is dicey, Team GBH merged with Armoured Core and the Overlords merged with SNHS (I believe the scrapper + controller sg's to be the least active in terms of different players?).
Not a move I'd like tho as I'd prefer for the Alt Rangers and then a mixed SG to be dropped ahead of these.
Having the game allow more SG's in coalition would be really nice tho -

Guess I'm not in it now.
Oh well, have fun guys. -
Radio is 40.1 atm ....
So what day(s) time(s) we doing this then?
I can play pretty much from 6.30pm UK time any day of the week untill midnight (and beyond on weekends). -
Radiotherapy is about half a bar into his journey towards level 41 and you should know him by now*
Would really appreciate this, knowing that theres a spot each time for him and that coveted level 50.
*Rad/Rad defender for those who don't -
Only bias the heroes have is that most of them have more inf to support them.
Once the villains get their enhancements to equal strength it will then boil down to tactics, luck and AT vs AT matchups*.
Was surprised that my lowbie level 16 Blaster could be of use in a team as a support hero. Did some damage and took quite a few deaths
*with possible ganking and griefing thrown in -
Very to and fro tonight, my first real attempt at PvP.
Heroes owned all for most of it tbh and I expected nothing else
Still there were two sustained period of villian dominance which was most satisfying.
At times my Brute felt like a gimped level 1 and at times felt he was better than his level. Even tho I must have looked like a large target wearing almost all white, I think managed ok against everyone bar that ruddy hurricane from Afro and that 50+ SO power of Disco King Jr's
Had to laugh when two level 50's (Disco + a scrapper I can't recall name) double teamed meAlso enjoyed holding on (barely) against Dark Neo, Dr Gullible (erm forget the other) untill Kid Power and 'every other hero' smacked me around a bit.
Easily the moment that made me laugh most was having six heroes hitting me with punches and assorted blasts and holds. Watching the fury bar reach max and dish out extreme DoT from Death Shroud was cool
Did seem tho exceptionally hard to beat most of those Scrappers and the few tanks I had a pop at, felt like a slow, painfull death to me. -
Hey Frost, wanna update that sig of yours eh?
*cough* 40 *cough* -
Sure - I'll no doubt be on someone within the 1 AT Coalition and if not, look for villians Geiger Counter, Crazy Carto and Mad MajikMan.
I've not checked today but to the 6 villians I'm still waiting to get a hold of, please come online -

Ok, so all Brutes taunt automaticly, but it angers me. Greatly.
I usually do missions with a team, so that means a LOT more enemies. So everyone is blowing the living [censored] out of them with ranged attacks. As a brute, I have no choice but to attack close to them. So I choose a target, go up to them and land a hit. Next thing I know the whole mob is onto me, and this usually means 8-15 enemies firing at me at once. This is stupid, even if I run away they fire again, and it's even worse if they knock me down.
I know them all hitting me means lots of rage, but whats the point if I'm dead? I don't want xp debt. Is there _anything_ I can do at all about it :\

Brutes do not start with any more ability to taunt a foe than any other villian AT.
Of course, once you use a power like Death Shroud with taunt built in, or a power slotted with taunt enhancements will you draw aggro like a CoH Tanker but will more difficult to hold it (unless you take Taunt).
Not too sure what was happening in what you describe above but should there not be any MM in the team (like thats going to happen), then as long as someone is giving you healing (combined with any self heal) you should live any sensible fight.
If there are MM then make sure you follow in after the henchmen and punch and jostle hitting your targets.
What I tend todo is after I have a good idea on my own ability to survive the current mission with a team, is to start with my PBAoE Taunt power off - build up fury running to a number of foes nearby - _then_ once I have a decent bar built up, turn on the Death Shroud and 'tank' untill either they are dead or I fear I'm over doing it.
Oh and if your falling over with knockback and have no power to counter act it, then Acrobatics is almost the most important power you need to get ASAP. -
Well at 23 your really limited to Scorch/Blazing Aura/Brawl plus Combustion to arrest villians.
As long as your heal and end regain moves are well slotted you can still be effective as long as your carefull.
I would still have Burn in your build as getting immobolised seems easier now. -
Look at the CoV offical site as it gives a background on this villian. He is a Corrupter who has an uber temp power weapon in the Sword of Serafina.
Was a big surprise when this was published as I and many others assumed he was a Stalker -
Added all of these villians to Geiger Counters friends list - hope to get you in soon (cue evil laugh)!
-
Also Reversico (PowerSWAT ect) can invite too
Would be nice to get everyone else in one way or the other. -
At this point I'm considering using a slot later on to make it 4 slot Stamina, just for that little bit extra
-
Ooooh got room for MajikMan, he's at level 31 atm and I went a bit wierd on the free respec

There an Icon for Villains?

Yes, the Face Maker is located in Capa Au Diable and is listed as 'tailor' in the map.
Contains the person to see for 2nd costume slot and the aura at level 30. -

Speaking of the lopsided-ness of ATs in the group, I'm tempted to bring out the second character I had from the beta - A Fire/Fire Corrupter... Meh, I'll see what levels are on tonight before deciding...

Not Thermal and the gfx lag of doom!
Great to have shields and heals but by eck, it sure brings the FPS down fast!
Made one myself and broke out of the Zig with her, leaving her at Kalinda untill the time is right - well untill I started to team with them (combined with the _the_ lag map of doom) and saw how much slower it all got
Real shame as they look so much fun.
Oh and hello to Spawn and Sinister, was good teaming with you folks in CoV -
Those keep in mind that the Plant AoE confuse, creates aggro for the Dominator player, where Mass Confusion does not.
Or so I am lead to believe -

Who thinks that the AoE heal graphics for /Thermal is truely truely awesome? Because I think it is.

It is truely evil is what it is
Can you say lag with me? -
Take Dark Regeneration ASAP
Nothing more annoying when you run out of insps to feed on when you have a good bar of fury going - so keep enough endurance and fuel up your health again, ready for another high tempo SMASH session.
Try and remember to turn on Death Shroud into a fight as it doesn't generate fury bar - but is that wise? I'm undecided still.
Murky Cloud I'd leave till after level 14.
Slot it and Dark Embrace with 3x Def Res / 2x End Red and for Obsidian Shield I'd want to squeeze a bit more and go with 4x Def Res / 2 End Red.
Dark Regen I had 1 Acc / 1 End Red / 1 Rec and it was decent - still needed more recharges.
Took Cloak of Darkness so I could safely look around the PvP zones.
Need to squeeze in Tough into it tho. -

Fire/DA
Might change on a whim, but seems decent.
[/ QUOTE ]
I've stuck with my beta villian and done Fire/DA too
Making sure I take fitness powers this time tho and not messed attacks when they took my lovely Combustion away
So far so good teaming with a DM/DA brute for most of this morning. -
I'll sort out my profile for Radiotherapy and Vixen Medic 'soon'
Also might send one in for Downside since she's the hero that will be the first (if any - if ever) to go rogue. -
A little bit active with Pink Ember these days, as she edges towards level 27+ .....
I am however always active within the coalition being online with a hero almost all the time
